Very Cold
Mutt Hoping for ScrapsBase H - Signy Island Antarctica

Outside the kitchen winter in mid-winter.
Feathers as fluffed out as they can be against the bitter cold, mutts
lived off the scraps that they could get from the base kitchen during
midwinter as any other source of food was either absent (other wildlife)
or completely frozen and often buried beneath the snow and ice. They
really should have headed north for the winter, but stayed around base
as the base was there, I always thought this gave us some kind of responsibility
to help keep them alive.

This picture is one of a collection assembled in
2007 on the 60th anniversary of Signy Island Base: 60°43'S 045°36'W.
Thank you to those who sent their treasured memories of their time in
Antarctica and allowed them to be made into a commemorative cd and then
placed here on the web.
